Happy TWO YEAR Anniversary to Rick Rubin’s, The Creative Act: A Way of being!

Many famed music producers are known for a particular sound that has its day and then ages out. Rick Rubin is known for something else: creating a
space where artists of all different genres and traditions can home in on who they really are and what they really offer.

Creativity has a place in everyone’s life, and everyone can make that place larger. In fact, there are few more important responsibilities.

The Creative Act is a beautiful and generous course of study that illuminates the path of the artist as a road we all can follow.

Today's #LunchtimeReading : continuing Padraig O Tuama's rather splendid 50 Poems to Open Your World from Canongate Books. Especially appreciate the personal nature of it; after each poem he discusses why he chose it, how it impacted his life at a certain time.
